Stories from the field

Training week for the 8th class of Kiva Fellows (KF8) is wrapping up our fifth and final day. We have another remarkable class of 27 people who will soon be heading to 18 different countries to work with Kiva’s MFI field partners.

This morning I got word that a couple of KF7′s were collaborating on a response to this new class of fellows and we made sure that the KF8 trainees watched each hilarious video.

Unfortunately, the camera was unable to capture the roars of laughter to “ostrich” “technological devices” “replaced” “tweeted – great looking group”.

Kiva is all about connecting people. Thanks Brett and Nick for connecting via video with our trainees in San Francisco. Well done KF7 and good luck KF8!
